Earth at night

Kakak gue nunjukin foto ini, dan gue terpesona hahahahh, di foto ini kamu bakal bisa liat negara-negara mana yang "hidup" pada malam hari
Karena keterbatasan pengetahuan gue, gue ga bisa bikin foto ini jadi gede (click to see larger image) gitu yaaa jadi gue kasih linknya aja yaa: foto

This is what the Earth looks like at night. Can you find your favorite country or city? Surprisingly, city lights make this task quite possible. Human-made lights high light particularly developed or populated areas of the Earth's surface, including the seaboards of Europe, the eastern United States, and Japan. Many large cities are located near rivers or oceans so that they can exchange goods cheaply by boat. Particularly dark areas include the central parts of South America, Africa, Asia, and Australia. The above image is actually a composite of hundreds of pictures made by the orbiting DMSP satellites.
